Dash Display, won'y go away
« on: 22 May 2007, 22:22 »
I had a few problems with my cd player, so i wipped it out, when I put it back in I blew the radio fuse, I've changed that, But since then, the Dash pisplay, which show the clock - trip comp, and the mileage display won't go off! engine off, keys out, it just won'y go away! any suggestions? Do you think this little power will drain the battery? How to I fix it? When it comes to auto electrics i don't know a lot!  :huh:

lock the car and go away for about 30 mins then come back a look through the window to check if its on! sure they stay on for a certain period of time after the key is taken out, not sure though

they stay on all the time, i'm pretty sure of that, mileage (so that everyone can see) and clock (so that I can tell the time as I don't wear a watch).
